Honoring My Grandmothers.

Ivy was my grandmother on my mom's side and live 300 miles away from us, on Christmas she would mail us kids gifts and five dollar bills to each of us kids.$5 was like $50 back then and every summer she would visit us for one to two weeks.

One summer Red Skeleton was going to be at the Ohio State fair and my grandmother wanted to see him, so we went, my grandmother, my mom and I. 

I remember Ivy giving our "gate entrance " tickets to the guard and he tore them in half and my grandmother jokingly said" We paid $3 each  for these tickets and there he goes tearing them up !" the guard simply laugh.  We got our ticket halves and we were all on our way.The entertainment at the Ohio State fair was all free (at that time anyway) and we simply walked in.

Now I do not remember if this was the same year or not but Ivy also wanted to see Art Linkletter ("Kids Say The Darnest Things") and we also saw him at the Ohio State fair as well.

My grandmother on my dad's side did visit us one time. We kids did not know any better and said "That is not grandma !" but she gave us gifts anyway.She stayed for couple of days then went home.

There are a lot of stars I saw performing at the Ohio State fair, just by myself. One day I told my mom I was going to the fair to see Bobby Bare, my mom jokingly said "Don't you want to see him with his clothes on ?" Me:  "Geeze !"

In my teenage years the stars I had  seen at the Ohio State fair were all female. The female stars I saw performing  during various years were Vikki Carr, Molly Bee, Jodi Miller, Petula Clark, Liza Minnelli,Skeeter Davis, Bobbi Martin and Dusty Springfield and a whole lot more .

                  God, Dusty Springfield was beautiful !" 

Unfortunately, Bobbi Martin and Dusty Springfield both died of breast cancer. Always get those breasts check out, your family and friends will still love you, even if one of two of your breasts have to be cut off.You don't want that cancer to spread to the rest of your body. They all want you alive that's the most important thing.

Finally, Ivy's favorite game was "Have You Ever Seen ?"  here you say two nouns but the second noun is use as a verb for example "Have you ever seen a porch swing ?" or "Have you ever seen a head light ?"

Welcome, Jodie Whittaker With Open Arms

                      The opinions are strictly my own.
   Today October 7th BBC AMERICA at 1:45 EDT will be premiering the first FEMALE  Dr. Who portrayed by Jodie Whittaker who is more than welcome, simply because she's pretty and lady like. A lady that I respect, appreciate and platonic love.

         How can the TARDIS be bigger in the inside ? 
 When people go through those doors they're entering a different dimension in space and the TARDIS  takes that dimension where ever or when ever it travels. Yes, Dr. Who operates the TARDIS from a different dimension in space, well at least it is a good explanation as any :)

Remember the old Twilight Zone's opening where they picture a flying door ? The door is two dimensional, but when that door is open , each time, there is always a different bigger dimension to enter; Which I would advise against, in this case anyway.

          Why the sonic screwdriver and psychic paper ?
 Each episode of Dr. Who lasts about 50 minutes or less, and NOT writing a second story or subplot on how she/he got into places saves time;  Regardless everything has to fit with the story line. The sonic screwdriver and/or psychic paper will never be use for the conclusion of its episodes; That's a NO NO !

  BBC America does show commercials, so the Dr.Who episodes will be cut; However in my case anyway I can download the uncut episodes from iTunes or from other legal sources. I already have downloaded all episodes that co-starred Billie Piper; Now this does not make me a stalker;  It makes me a collector.

                        Dr. Who is for everyone: 
Story lines for the adults, monsters for the kids....Admit it, when you were a kid you did not care about the story line, you wanted to see the monster(s)  :) 

My favorite actors on Dr.Who: Tom Baker and David Tennate.
As long as where on the subject of British actors my favorite James Bond actors are Pierce Brosnan and Roger Moore.(end)
